Present-Day Media

What exactly is considered present-day media? Since we live in a generation of the cell phone now, I believe a great example of this would be a smart phone most people have readily available on them. It most commonly refers to the high-speed availability on the internet, through any digital device such as a laptop, cell phone or tablet. A defining characteristic of present-day media would be dialogue. Most people around the world utilize the internet to transmit messages one way or another from one thing to another, whether that is holding a conversation with an old family member across the states, or purchasing a product from China. Either way, we are sending a message with an intent to hopefully receive something back from that message sent. That is the direction today's society is headed.. Electronically.
